Default Clearwater Glenda lights

Has anyone mounted these lights on their GS, and if so, is there a mount available that moves the lights up off of the unsprung portion of the bike?

I've been a Motolights customers for years, but want to mount my next set of aux. lights up higher on the GS.

I just saw their lights at the MOA rally and ordered a set of Glenda's, which do (as far as I know) just mount on the sliders. A number of light venders said having a "triangle" of lights (the longer the better) is more visible than three lights across. But you could call and ask them if there's a bracket for mounting Glenda's somewhere else like on crashbars.
Clearwater had their new Krista's on display. They are larger and were mounted up high like regular driving lights.
Clearwater makes some nice LED lights. He uses anodized aluminum, then powder coats it. The fasteners are stainless. He has a nice can-bus cable for the newer BMW's, and they're made in the USA (California).

I ordered a set of the Glendas this morning and should have them by mid-week. The owner of the company - Glenn - went to great lengths to answer my questions, provide photos and engineering drawings and be sure things were right before I made a decision. I'll have some pics and a report up here shortly.

Barkslayer,

Did you ever get your Glendas mounted? I'm in the market for some additional lighting and am interested in your thoughts.

Thanks,

Tim
